Tension Link Load Cell

The MSI Tension Link load cell was designed for permanent installations and features a mil-spec connector and analog communications sensor to interface with weight transmitters and readout instrumentation, including the MSI-8004HD weight indicator, Rice Lake’s SCT signal conditioning transmitters or MSI’s TranSend® wireless load cell interface.

For current crane operators, the MSI Tension Link load cell can be installed in lift chains or between the lifting apparatus and crane block to measure weight, as well as provide a safety indicator for overload and other conditions.
